   Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro.   derailer | Jan 25, 2024 |  I will put whole series away for some time. For all its goods it seems that character of Temperance Brennan simply won't going well with my current life problems. (  ) WorkLastDay | Dec 17, 2023 | This book hooked me from page one. I loved seeing Tempe in her element, and I particularly appreciated the Montreal setting. I remember the ice storm mentioned in this novel, and it brought back some memories I'd thought long buried. While I found Reichs' insistence on sharing every bit of her research with us (especially around the monkeys!) a little dull, I appreciated her precision and the vivid word pictures she painted. The plot kept me guessing until the end, and I enjoyed turning the last page feeling satisfied. No cliff ender here! I'm looking forward to the next instalment. (  ) Elizabeth_Cooper | Oct 27, 2023 | This book did not disappoint me at all! It had lots of action, twists and turns I didn't see coming, mystery, romance and a wild adventure. Seeing more of Agent Andrew Ryan made me very happy, and even seeing the cat Birdie make more of an appearance made my heart grow. There isn't anything I would ask Kathy Reichs for. I could pick this book apart for how frustrated I was when I didn't see the twists coming, but that means she did a spectacular job. I'm lucky I have the next novel on hand because I am addicted to this woman's work! Five out of five stars. Amazing crime/mystery/action novel with lots of suspense and mystery, but at the same time the ending ties up all loose ends. Forensic perfection in one novel! ( ) Briars_Reviews | Aug 4, 2023 | Su investigación se ve interrumpida por el descubrimiento de varios cadáveres calcinados en un chalet destruido por las llamas, cuyo examen pondrá a prueba la experiencia profesional de Tempe. El detective de homicidios Andrew Ryan, con quien mantiene una relación tempestuosa, se une a ella para escarecer las causas del mismo incendio. Tempe y Andrew se sumergen en el mundo de una controvertida socióloga, una enigmática secta y una colonia de primates en una isla de Carolina del Sur. Tempe se siente abrumada por el caso, confundida por la creciente atracción hacia Ryan y preocupada por el conflicto espiritual que vive su hermana.

HTML:When a recent skeleton among ancient bones raises questionsâ??and dangerâ??forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan is the only one who can solve the case in this "triumphant second appearance" (Publishers Weekly) from #1 New York Times bestselling author Kathy Reichs. Tempe Brennan is stuck teaching an archaeology field school for students at UNCC in Charleston, South Carolina. When she stumbles upon a recent skeleton among the ancient bones, she starts asking questions. She's the expert they might have called in, but lucky for the police she's already there. The skeleton leads her to a free street clinic where patients have begun to go missing, and some have wound up dead. What is going on and who is to blame? The charismatic televangelist who oversees the clinic? The shady doctor who practices there? Or is it the clinic staff? Ryan is in Montreal, though he may come down for a visit. If he does, Tempe will have to juggle him and Detective Galiano, an old flame, who is in town investigating the disappearance of a wealthy young woman. This is a phenomenally high stakes business where one dead body can save a couple of lives, maybe more. Along with the corpses, Tempe investigates the sick moral logic of the mastermind behind the operation. Kathy Reichs has returned Tempe to America and put her in the middle of a sinister trafficking ring that's local and global. The suspense is intense, and the world is riveting. Kathy Reichs's books are expert and smart with a taut energy, and this is her best plot and writin Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
